Ya know...Glenn brought up a good point. In all the episodes I ever watched (and mind u it has been all of them) I can't recall anybody drinking anything except coffee, milk and an occassional bottle of pop. Who hid the sweet iced tea? Curious, curious.... Liz "aint you got a jack" Roberts

For me it would be worth the trip to see all those railroad cars, especially the one being turned into a restaurant. I surely love trains and would love to take a ride on one right now.

I believe the episode is "Up in Barney's Room" one of my all time faves! Barney has been evicted from Mrs. Mendlebright's boarding house (after being caught using a 100 watt bulb instead of 40 and cooking on top of her mother's dresser that came all the way from Ft. Lauderdale) and has to take the room in the back of the courthouse...and Oh my, my ...he and Thelma Lou have the lights out, when Andy and Opie drop by after seeing a "picture show" with Gregory Peck... ( the actor of the man). "You better get yourself a room!" jaywalkin joan Weddington, NC ________________________________________________________________________ Check out AOL.com today.

I came across this bit of info in the history section: "The town father was Henry R .Bennett, a traveling salesman from Delaware who, when the railroad was being built in 1884, envisioned the possibility of a thriving town at this point. With friends and relatives Bennett formed the Parksley Land Improvement Company, purchased 160 acres from farmer Benjamin Parks, and laid out a completely new town around the railroad. Henry Bennett did everything in his power to make his little town a model community." Since you claim that Parksley is a lot like Mayberry, I am just wondering whether Parksley's founder is an ancestor of Mayberry's own Henry Bennett (a.k.a. The Jinx). After all, Virginia is only one state away from North Carolina. I think you ought to research this, Billy, and then tell Barney about it. Maybe then Barn would have a little more respect for poor, beleaguered Henry! I think it would boost Henry's self-esteem as well. Oh, and here's an even better idea -- you could tell the Parksley Women's Historical Society that you have located the only living descendant of the town's founder, and they could plan to honor him with a special award! Of course, when the mayor and town council find out that Henry has a hex on him and is scorned by his own town folk, they may try to talk you into telling Henry that he isn't getting the award after all. This will be a test of your character, Billy. Will you stand by poor old Henry and give him his moment in the sun? You could always take Andy and Otis along for moral support. Why, this could mean a whole new lease on life for Mayberry's jinx! Keep us posted on what you find out, Billy.

What episode is that line from - where Opie is questioning Andy >>>about a movie they had just seen and the actor's accent changed from one >>>movie to the next?<<< I believe that was from "Up in Barney's Room" in the fourth season. Barney had lost his room at Mrs. Mendlebright's boarding house and was temporarily staying in the back room of the courthouse. Andy and Opie were walking home from the movies when they saw the lights in the courthouse blinking on and off. They discovered Barney and Thelma Lou inside doing some "filing" in the dark!

Hey, that's pretty good! I never even thought about or noticed that before. I'm sure Andy would have loved some sweet tea to wash down that third plate of spaghetti! Amy Goober says "Hey".

I was so proud to quote my favorite show in a little talk with my son! >>> That scene is from "Up in Barney's Room." The actor in question is Gregory Peck. Now, what movie do you suppose they'd just seen? This episode aired in 1963; the only film Peck made that year was "Captain Newman, M.D." That film would probably not have appealed to Opie, and it's also probable that the Grand doesn't get brand new movies when they first come out, so maybe they were seeing a movie made the year before. This narrows it down to "To Kill a Mockingbird," "How the West Was Won" or "Cape Fear." I haven't seen "To Kill a Mockingbird," but I did read the book, and I don't remember any Northern persons in there (this must be the film Andy and Opie had seen previously, with Peck talking Southern.) "How the West Was Won" is definitely the type of movie Opie would like, but that was such an enormous film with so many great actors (many Mayberry guest stars among them) that nobody would call it a Gregory Peck film. This leaves "Cape Fear," which doesn't seem like the type of film Andy would take Opie to see, but then again, Andy had no objection to "House of Blood" and "The Beast That Ate Minnesota," so my guess is "Cape Fear" is the film they'd just seen. --Paul ------------------------------ Message: 10 Date: Sun, 6 Aug 2006 00:05:35 -0500 From: "Joseph R.
